Don’t miss your chance to witness a living miracle. This isn’t just a place that sparks the imagination — it challenges reason and awakens wonder. Hidden in the green hills of Arcadia, the sacred Temple of Agia Theodora is unlike anything else in the world. Here, towering trees — some reaching 30 meters high — grow straight through the stone walls and roof of a tiny Byzantine chapel, whose walls are barely 30 centimeters thick. Yet the building stands firm, untouched by time, weather, or logic. According to tradition, it was here that Saint Theodora was martyred. As she faced death, she prayed: “Let my body become a church, my hair the trees, and my blood the water.” And so it came to pass. Today, massive trees rise from the temple itself — and from beneath its foundations flows a small river, as if fed by her sacrifice. Whether you're a believer or a skeptic, standing in this place makes you feel the presence of something beyond comprehension — something holy.

A miracle not as a metaphor, but as a reality.

We were 8 people so they brought two tuk tuk (6 ppl per vehicle seems to be the maximum) It was a fantastic way to see the city and get to know other landmarks apart from the Acropolis. We really enjoyed getting to know more of the history of Greece and both our guides were really great and friendly.

The best Acropolis tour with Lydia

This tour of the Acropolis Museum and the Acropolis was outstanding, and our guide, Lydia, was absolutely the best guide we had on our entire trip. Lydia is incredibly knowledgeable and has an obvious love for teaching that comes through in her tours. She happily answered all of our questions and made the best of our short tour time. We wish we could have spent all of our days in Athens with Lydia.

Bill_N, Apr 2026

A great day in Athens.

We covered a lot of Athens highlights and our driver/guide George was terrific. One item to note is that Acropolis Museum was on our own. If you want in depth explanations there may be an option to add that. Definitely plan to watch the 15 minute video on the top floor because it explains the construction and other details of interest. We did the museum before hiking up to the Parthenon, which I thought was the ideal batting order. And if you have time, go to dinner somewhere in Plaka district. That place was hopping on Saturday evening!!!

Highly recommend this Viator tour if you want to see the best of Athens in a day. It’s a busy itinerary, so be prepared for a full day of exploring, but our guide was excellent and kept us engaged throughout.

Our group consisted of two adults and two kids (ages 10 & 12). Our tour guide was very friendly, accommodating, and SO knowledgeable. She was excellent with keeping even the kids interested and entertained. She even took family photos, which I am SO grateful for as I never seem to get one of those when we travel. I would definitely recommend the experience to others.

Our guide pointed out the buildings in Athens as we passed by and told us interesting facts. I bought the tickets for the Acropolis and the National Archaeological Museum before we left for the trip for the times needed and printed them. He made sure we got to the sites during the time slot. He can’t go into the sites because he’s not an official guide but there are signs at the Acropolis and we bought a book. In the museum they give you a telephone device to enter numbers that explains in English what the item is; this was free and I had to give them my drivers license and it was returned when I brought the devices back. The van was very nice and we were the only 4 people in the van. Our driver Nick spoke very good English and answered all of our questions. He recommended some restaurants for us to go to at the end of the tour and the restaurant we went to was very good. I would definitely recommend this tour. The hardest part of the tour was trying to find him after exiting the Acropolis. He pinged us and texted on what’s app and we were able to find him.

Lake Vouliagmeni Thermal Spa And Temple Of Poseidon Private Full Day Tour

Chris_A, Mar 2026

An awesome & unforgettable tour!

This tour was truly one of the highlights of our time in Athens. From the serene beauty of Lake Vouliagmeni to the breathtaking views at the Temple of Poseidon, every moment felt thoughtfully curated and unforgettable. What made the experience exceptional, however, was our tour guide Jason. He was incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and carried a genuinely positive attitude throughout the entire day. His depth of knowledge brought each location to life, and he shared insights and stories that you simply wouldn’t get on your own. He was also prompt, accommodating, and consistently attentive—making sure we were comfortable, engaged, and enjoying every stop. His recommendations were spot-on and added even more value to an already fantastic itinerary. By the end of the day, it felt less like a tour and more like a perfectly guided experience with someone who truly cared about making it special for us. He turned a great tour into a memorable one. Highly recommend—this is an absolute must-do if you’re visiting Athens.

Private Half Day Tour of Athens

Dr_N, Jul 2025

Awesome day in Athens!

We arrived in Athens on the day of a massive taxi driver/ tour operator strike. All excursions from the cruise ship were canceled, and passengers were scrambling to make other plans. Our Viator booking called us to relieve our concerns that they were fully operational. The driver was fantastic. He chatted with us and discussed the places that would be best for us to visit- the best part of a private car is that you make your own itinerary. He took us to several historic locations and the changing of the guards and still made it to our reservation at the Acropolis with time to spare. He gave us tips for each location and we had conversations about the historical significance of each place. He took us away from the crowds of tourists to an authentic Greek bakery with amazing delicacies and ice-cold drinks. The lack of tourist traffic allowed for several extra locations, and our driver made the most of our time in Athens. Highly recommended!
